XBOX and Nintendo are laying into Sony's PlayStation in a new video advert.

The rival console makers are promoting their cross-play features – which lets users play Fortnite and Minecraft against people on different consoles – to mock Sony for not offering the feature for PS4 gamers.

Sony is caught up in controversy for not allowing PS4 Fortnite players to join online matches with Xbox gamers

On Twitter, a user messaged Microsoft's Head of Xbox Phil Spencer about how they'd like to see Xbox One and PS4 get cross-play.

In response, Phil said: "Me 2."

And then Epic Games responded through its Fortnite Twitter account with "We 3".

In a follow-up statement, a Microsoft spokesperson said: "We've worked closely with Nintendo to allow cross-network play between Xbox One and Switch, and our offer to do the same with PlayStation players still holds.

"For any other questions regarding Fortnite cross-network play between Xbox and PlayStation, please reach out to Epic or Sony directly."
